MR_BURNS2 -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (12/8/2013 1:49:56 AM)

Tornado IDS German Navy Version, AAM only loadout, very low priority.
Iam pretty sure that German/Italian Tornados could carry only 2 Sidewinders on the inner side of each inner wing station.

http://www.aeroflight.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/tornado-ecr-upper-heyford-1991.jpg

I read a lot about Tornados and never heard about or saw 4 sidewinders on them.

I don't know if this is a good place to post this issue, but I've been having problems trying to download the "DB3000 Update 11-30-13.zip" from the Warfare Sims downloads page. I get most of the way through downloading the file then then I get a message saying that there was an error from the source. I've tried several times and each time the same thing happens. I've downloaded from this page before without any problems. Anyone else having an issue at this time?

UPDATE: This is what the error looks like, after yet another try. This one actually got to 100% complete, but then threw the error message:

I just downloaded the file from the website without any problem. Can you retry to download and see if you have the same problem?

Just tried downloading the DB3000 images file again and got the same result. Ran till almost the very end of the download and then it stopped with the same error window. Very weird since I could download the CWDB file with no problems. Perhaps it's some magic size limit being triggered? Would it be possible to break the DB3000 into two parts so I could see if that works?

When there is time, Sudan air force and army stuff could be added:

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudanese_Air_Force

http://sudanesefuture.wordpress.com/military/

The Sudan People’s Armed Forces is a 394,250 member army supported by 95,000 reserve troops. The Sudanese army also has air borne systems, including Mi-24 helicopter gun ships, F-7 fighters and fourth generation fighters such as the MiG-29, Antonov medium and long transport aircraft, mobile artillery pieces, and light assault weapons. Sudan now receives most of its military equipment from the People’s Republic of China and Russia.

Sudan has a weapons industry called the Military Industry Corporation, which is self-sufficient in the production of ammunition, machine guns, mortars, artillery, rockets, armored vehicles, UAV’s and tanks. This has become the most advanced military production industry in Africa and the Middle East.

- - -

South Sudan could also be added.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudan_People%27s_Liberation_Army

Current organisation

As of 2013, the SPLA was organised into a 210,000-person strong army comprising nine light infantry divisions and a small air force. At this time the government was planning to reduce the size of the military.[1]
Equipment

As of 2013 the SLPA's land forces operated the following heavy equipment:

110 x T-72[1]
A small number of T-55 tanks[1]
12 x 2S1 Gvozdika[1]
12 x 2S3 Akatsiya[1]
15 x BM-21 Grad[1]
More than 30 82mm mortars[1]

As of 2013 the South Sudan Air Force operated the following aircraft:

1 x Beechcraft 1900[1]
9 x Mil Mi-17[1]
1 x Mi-172[1]

Please can you add the following to the Nimrod MR 2.

DIFAR Buoys alongside LOFAR until DICASS replaced both in the late 90's
BARRA Buoys (same as the AP-3 - joint development with the Australians - they got CAMBS out of the deal)
AN/SSQ-47 (we called them Ranger Buoys) - until they get withdrawn (carrying them with CAMBS was a cost saving measure - dropping a CAMBS was a 10k+ cost per buoy!!)

US Lockheed EC-130H Compass Call

This OECM aircraft have only one generic average OECM onboard. Compared to other smaller fighter size jammer aircrafts it seems to be weak on jamming. Is it possible to add more jammers or maybe more advanced version. Compass Call is USAF's primary jam-platform specially designed for the job, so it seems odd it's so weak at doing it. It has much more room for larger jammers and bigger crew than example EA-18G Growler. I know that Compass Call main task is to jam communications but it's also able to jam radars.

Can you look into it, thanks!

Hi

I was looking at Serbian facilities and they don't have 2K12 Kub listed, they also lack Bofors 40mm L-70 and the Zirafa Radar (Swedish Giraffe) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIRAFFE_Radar
Don't know if Neva-M1T or Kub M2 are represented but these are the latest upgrades they have.

They also using a set of radars that I'm not able to see listed

S-605/654 Observation radars
S-613 Altitude measurement radar
AN/TPS-70 3D radar
AS-74 and AS-84 automatized systems

The 250th Air Defence Missile Brigade operates SA-3 and SA-6 surface-to-air missile systems. The military is upgrading both types with fire-and-forget ability. The air force has upgraded "Neva-M" to the "Neva-M1T" standard and "Kub-M" to "Kub-M2".[9][10][11] For defending air bases and important infrastructures Bofors 40mm L-70 in complement with M-85 Zirafa radars are used

Blu3wolf -> JORN transmitters (12/13/2013 5:09:14 PM)

[FIXED DB v440]

G'day, the arc coverage for JORN is not accurate?

the JORN transmitter included in the DB has an arc of about 120 degrees, maybe 135 degrees?

however two of the 3 JORN sites have only 90 degrees coverage, and the WA site at laverton has a 180 degree coverage.

is it possible we could have instead of a single transmitter, a pair, one 90 degree transmitter and one 180 degree transmitter? thanks.

#1742 - DD 110 Takanami [Improved Marusame] should have the option for #927 - RIM-162B ESSM in its VLS in addition to RIM-7M Seasparrow and VL ASROC. At some point the class was upgraded with ESSM capability, but I can't find a hard date.




mikmykWS -> RE: JORN transmitters (12/14/2013 12:22:21 PM)

Added fix requests for Jorn and the destroyer.

Full C-RAM may have to wait until we get mechanics for shooting down rockets/artillery.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_Air_Force_aircraft_control_and_warning_squadrons#Sites_Outside_the_United_States
The Iceland sites are designated H-xx, and in each individual entry of Iceland radar sites on Wikipedia are listed the radar types of each site.

Requesting Myanmar's Air Force...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar_Air_Force

In particular, these are the main aircraft (according to sources like Military Balance). I'm not sure if they are different from other export versions already in the database, but it would be helpful to add Myanmar itself and the years that the specific aircraft are active (to the extent this can be determined).

A few aircraft are not already in the database, so links are provided for those...

MiG-29B Fulcrum
F-7 (MiG-21F) Fishbed C
A-5M (Q-5II) Fantan <-- same version as Pakistan?
An-12 Cub
F-27 Friendship

PC-6A Turbo Porter/PC-6B Turbo Porter
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilatus_PC-6

Cessna 180 Skywagon

G-4 Super Galeb
K-8

PZL W-3 Sokol
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PZL_W-3_Sok%C3%B3%C5%82

Mi-17 (Mi-8MT) Hip H

PZL MI-2 Hoplite
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mil_Mi-2

Bell 205 <-- included as the UH-1; does the Bell 205 itself need to be added?
Bell 206 JetRanger
SA-316 Alouette III

Thanks for considering these!




Mgellis -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (12/19/2013 4:55:21 AM)

While we're on the subject of Myanmar, could we also get its navy?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar_Navy

Apparently, they have their own indigenous frigates, the Aung Zeya-class, detailed here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aung_Zeya_class_frigate

Along with their frigates (they have a couple of Chinese ones, too; I am not sure if they have been modified or not), they've got about a dozen missile boats and a dozen gun-only fast attack craft. That's a pretty solid little navy.





Mgellis -> RE: Thread for DB3000 database problems, updates or issues (12/19/2013 5:00:22 AM)

And while we're on the subject of solid little navies where you might not have expected to find them, the following ships should be added to Bangladesh...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ships_of_the_Bangladesh_Navy

With most of these classes, the ships were purchased from other countries, but a lot of the original weaponry appears to have been replaced or upgraded, so they will probably need their own entries in the database.

At least one class, the Padma-class patrol vessel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Padma_Class) is indigenous; I don't think anyone else uses it. I did not see it in the DB3000.

Thanks again for considering these.
